oblong Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Hmm.... not familiar with that. On Monroe in Dearborn we have today a Little Ceasar's, Howies, Joe & Reno's (our place). There used to be a Dino's. Further into downtown there was a place on Michign Ave called Angelo's. Wonder where it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder where it was. This would be in the late 80s, early 90s. it could be long gone now. It comes up when I searched as Joe and Reno's pizza on Monroe Street. That may be what it was and got phone gamed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I do is call and they hear my voice and say "15 minutes". that's it. Better than mobile ordering. They load it up with pepperoni. You see 2 or 3 on top of each other.

Jim Cowan Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 My son has a relationship like that with a local Thai place, when she sees his number on a call display she picks up the phone and recites the order for him and his wife. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would get it every Wednesday due to the fact it was easy for the kids, my wife and I always had to be somewhere right after work. But I was dropping $40 because I got a lot of it, good for leftovers the next day and two teenagers. So now we get it every other Wednesday, the other one I will throw some chicken in the crockpot and it's shredded chicken of some kind or I'll add some carrots and shawarma seasoning and it's kind of a soup concoction.

I eat pizza so often because it reminds me of the crappy job my parents did feeding my large family. They'd throw a pizza on the table and the predators would haul off sections of the carcass. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This pizza holds up well as leftovers. That’s the big difference I find with chains. I like Hungry Howies well enough but the next day it’s ****.

chasfh Posted June 5, 2023 Author Share Posted June 5, 2023 I have a similar relationship like that with several restaurants here in Big Shoulders, and they all know me as John Smith, because my real first name sounds like two or three other real first names and they frequently get it wrong; and even worse, they frequently ask me to spell my very long real last name for the order. But nobody can screw up John Smith, and anyone who does, you might not want to trust them to make your food. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a Jets in Fort Wayne for a hot minute, only one in NE Indiana. I liked it, not sure why it closed..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure draining the pool to flood the surveillance room is one of their protocols. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
